Assuming that you trust your users enough to let them run PHP code
here's a tip from the Wiki: http://wiki.nginx.org/NginxUserDir
I suggest a simpler regex (without ? in usernames and the slash out of
the 1st group).
location ~ ^/~(?<username>.+)/(?<userpath>.*)$ {
alias /home/$username/public_html/$userpath;
}
with named capture groups or just:
location ~ ^/~(.+)/(.*)$ {
alias /home/$1/public_html/$2;
}
with numeric groups.
Note that with drupal you can have multisite installs. Therefore if
you add an A record to your domain.com zone file like, e.g.,
username.domain.com and make the domain.com/~username URI a 301
redirect you can run your own core and basic modules and let your
users create a theme and add modules as they see fit. Anyway it's your
machine, so you make the rules.
Happy New Year,
